I don't know that I'm voting for Chui or Rahm. For me, I'd reconsider Rahm if he immediately implemented a Mayoral 2-term limit; and if he convinced the aldermen to implement a 3-term-limit on Aldermen (grandfathering existing Aldermen, oh, of course), I think he'd run away with the race. So much of the trouble we're in now could've been avoided if we didn't have a life-time Mayor sitting on fixing the major issues whilst hoping for good luck to occasionally sweep them away.

I love rover.com! We have the greatest gal for our 16 year old Jack Russell! She makes him feel right at home and he is not stressed out when he comes back home. Her name is Vanessa. We did an overnight to see if everyone was compatible and he bonded quickly with her. We having been using her for over a year now.

18X22 ROOM FOR RENTMay 1st

I am looking for a non-smoking, peace loving, cat friendly neat individual to rent a beautiful room in an amazing Arts & Crafts building in the Fullerton and Western area; tree lined street, easy parking, tons of public trans, very safe neighborhood.

The 18X22 room is in the front of the apartment. It is very private, almost like having your own studio apartment. There is a faux fireplace, stained glass windows, ceiling fan, and the front of room is all windows, so lots of light. The apartment is on the second floor so it feels like you are in the trees. The room is large enough for sitting area, office, and bedroom area. Built-in book shelves. Beautiful!

The kitchen is huge and modernized, dish washer, walk in pantry, kitchen is furnished. The bathroom is also huge and very nice, clean, subway tiles, ceiling fan. The coin laundry is in basement. There is some storage available. OK for bike in basement, real safe. 3 units in the building, so the building is quiet. I have 2 cats. No more pets are allowed.

$650.00 per month everything included (rent, utilities, cleaning supplies etc. and housekeeping.) Phone & internet not included. $650.00 security deposit and references required. Apartment available May 1st (preferred) but could be as early as April 15th or as late as June 1st as well.

Hi I'm very interested in this!! I just moved here to take a job from California and am looking for this exact living situation. My # is 562 237 2581 please contact me if this offer is still there thank you!!

Mitchell Thomas, 24, and Jamie Branch, 23, were arrested after leading police on a chase following the robbery at a 7-11 store in the 500 block of North Halsted at about 2:55 a.m. When police arrived at the convenience store, they found a group of thieves attempting to rob the store.

The group then fled the store in a car and were chased by police before they crashed near the intersection of Grand and Cortland. The offenders then fled on foot, but police caught up with Thomas and Branch.

Thomas, of the 1400 block of East 72nd Street, was charged with one felony count of armed robbery, two felony counts of aggravated battery and one misdemeanor for domestic battery.

We are in the process of buying a new duplex (yay!) and once everything is finalized will need/want to do some work on the unit including updating the kitchen and maybe some work on the above garage deck. I know a lot of the work will require city permits. Does anyone have advice on navigating those waters? We've only rented till now so I have no idea what we are getting into. Also any suggestions for designers and/or contractors is greatly appreciated! TIA!!!

M G brothers construction. Can't go wrong with this company doing your work. You will need an architect and drawings. They can point you in the right direction. If the building is landmarked the permit process lengthens. Good luck.

I do this type of work all the time. I would be happy to meet with you and go over the process of any project that you are considering. My company is Chicago Ironman Builders. Give me a call and we can discuss your project.Jamie773-875-7962
